Notes

A vocal-led Memphis Blues chapter in Ruthie Calder's Riverglass Motel sequence, built around a vacancy sign trembles beside the river.

Words

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A vacancy sign trembles beside the river. I let the room keep time while the old noise fades. I keep my hands steady and listen for the change. [Pre-Chorus] I set one room key beside a name i will not call. Nothing here is borrowed, nothing has to hide. [Chorus] Riverglass Motel, stay with me through the turning. Riverglass Motel, say the thing the dark could not erase. Carry the honest part into the morning. We will know the way by how the last word lands. [Verse 2] The hour moves forward, leaving room around the truth. I meet it without hurry, without dressing it in gold. What was only distance becomes a road beneath us. What was only silence finds a voice and finds a home. [Bridge] No borrowed thunder, no convenient ending. Only breath, only ground, only one clear name. [Final Chorus] Riverglass Motel, stay with me through the turning. Carry the honest part into the morning. We will know the way by how the last word lands.
